Slain Dutch businessman Tob Cohen's widow Sarah Wairimu has finally spoken about her late husband's will.
The late businessman's will was opened last week in the presence of his family members and friends.
Wairimu and his lawyer Philip Murgor boycotted the event presided over by lawyer Chege Kirundi, who has been the custodian of the will which was reportedly drawn in April this year.
In an affidavit filed in court, Wairimu, who is accused of murdering her husband, has protested the move by Cohen's family and the lawyer to open the will in her absence.
“I am surprised and shocked that my late husband’s sister Gabriele Van Straten together with lawyer Chege Kirundi, would insist on opening the will while my late husband had not yet been buried and while I was in custody,” she argues in an affidavit seen by The Star on Friday.
She accused Cohen's sister and her husband of a plan to disinherit her, arguing that is why they left for the Netherlands immediately the will was read.
"After the opening of my late husband's will, Gabriele and her husband had no further use for my husband and promptly left the country despite publicly stating that they wanted to accord him a decent Jewish burial,” reads the affidavit.
Wairimu further denies that the late businessman had a debt amounting to Sh35 million belonging to two prominent Kiambu politicians.
"I further learnt that the will opening ceremony was attended by a politician, one Patrick Muiruri and that two Kiambu politicians were claiming to be owed a sum of Sh35 million by my late husband," she adds.
Muiruri, former Gatundu North MP, was a friend of Cohen for over 30 years.
He has repeatedly claimed he was the last person the murdered businessman talked to on the night he was reported missing.
Reports indicate Cohen left nothing of his multi-million property to his estranged wife.
Wairimu, who will take plea on Tuesday, October 1, has vowed to challenge the contents of the will in court.
